Overseas we had Tim Sloan taking fourthplace outright in the US 100km Championships, Yiannis Kouros winning tJleUS 24 hour Championships and the usual group of Sydney Striders running at the Comrades Marathon in South Africa. At the time of writing, the Colac Six Day Race is being conducted forthe last time, it is a shame to see an event with such a long and unique history disappear fromthe calendar. Another event that may also disappear is the 24/48 hour event in Maryborough [Qld], I was fortunate enough to be at the Maryborough event this year and I thought it was very well organised, particularly when you consider that a small town like Maryborough is not flushedwith state of the art facilities. I was recently doing "point duty" at the Melbourne Marathon and it was good to see several old ultranuts still having a run. Ron Hill, Brickley Hepburn,Jeff Visser and Bob Fickel [although a little slower these days] w,erejust some of the familiar old facesthat I saw. For those of you who have had your head in the sand, there are a number of runners running either around, across or all over Australia. Pat Farmer and Gary Parsons are both getting publicity but we have recently heard that John Moyle is doing something similar and Frenchman, Serge Girard, has just completed a Perth to Sydney run. These runners have accomplished incredible achievements doing things that capture the imagination of the non runningpublic which is great forthe sport of Ultrarunning. As a purist [ conservative, maybe] I must say that I have somewhat of a problem with the way in which the term "world record" is flippantlyapplied to the various self appointed categories that seem to emerge in solo runs. Both John and Gary are claiming world records forthe longest distance run which makes me wonder what ever happened to Englishman, Robert Garside, who ran into Adelaide in November 1998 claiming the same record on route to a planned 68,000km which was to finish in 2001. Has anyone heard of Robert in the past 12 months? I had a chance meeting with Gordon Burrowes at the local swimming pool a fewdays ago and he had been followingboth Gary and Pat with his computer and he has given me an interesting comparison on their respective runs that appears in this issue. When it comes to putting this magazine together, alzheimers and old age are really setting in. At Dot Browne's place last week I decided that I had better get my glasses because I was having trouble reading, only to discover that I had locked both my glasses and car keys in the car. "Have you got a coat hangar, Dot?" I asked. "Sure" she replied as she pulled a coat of the rack and promptly placed the coat hangar on the chair and handed me the coat ! ! ! How on earth do you break into a car with a coat???????????? Kevin Cassidy (Co-editor's comment: Get stuffed Kev !) And to all you ultra fanaticsout there..... Have a great Christmas and don't let that office party, staff break-up, kinder nativity play, school carols' night, Christmas dinner, street party, visits to Mum, New Year's Eve celebrations, family holiday, or other such inconsequentials get in the way of training, your No. I priority remember! Basically, stay fitand staysafe. With undying infection from Kev and me. Regards Dot. 5.

  • Physiology and Pathophysiology in Ultra-Marathon Running
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2018 Physiology and pathophysiology in ultra-marathon running Knechtle, Beat ; Nikolaidis, Pantelis Theodoros Abstract: In this overview, we summarize the findings of the literature with regards to physiology and pathophysiology of ultra-marathon running. The number of ultra-marathon races and the number of official finishers considerably increased in the last decades especially due to the increased numberof female and age-group runners. A typical ultra-marathoner is male, married, well-educated, and 45 years old. Female ultra-marathoners account for 20% of the total number of finishers. Ultra-marathoners are older and have a larger weekly training volume, but run more slowly during training compared to marathoners. Previous experience (e.g., number of finishes in ultra-marathon races and personal best marathon time) is the most important predictor variable for a successful ultra-marathon performance followed by specific anthropometric (e.g., low body mass index, BMI, and low body fat) and training (e.g., high volume and running speed during training) characteristics. Women are slower than men, but the sex difference in performance decreased in recent years to 10-20% depending upon the length ofthe ultra-marathon. The fastest ultra-marathon race times are generally achieved at the age of 35-45 years or older for both women and men, and the age of peak performance increases with increasing race distance or duration. An ultra-marathon leads to an energy deficit resulting in a reduction of both body fatand skeletal muscle mass.
